The Republic of Cattiva is a huge, safe nation, remarkable for its state-planned economy, multi-spousal wedding ceremonies, and suspicion of poets. The hard-nosed, democratic, devout population of 451 million Cattivans are known throughout the region for their efficiency and work ethic, as well as their general suspicion of leisure.

The large, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Education, and Healthcare. The average income tax rate is 46.9%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The Cattivan economy, worth 20.5 trillion baht a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is a slick, highly efficient, quite specialized black market in Beef-Based Agriculture, Cheese Exports, Tourism, and Gambling. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is 45,531 baht, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Crocodile is one of the most popular forenames in Cattiva, the government is paving paradises to put up parking lots, the government says that Possession is nine-tenths of the Lore, and businesses are scrambling to adapt to the government's mandate that 'time and measurement no longer exist'. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Cattiva's national animal is the crocodile, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans.

Cattiva is ranked 279,707^th in the world and 58^th in Yuno for Most Patriotic, with 2.01 flags saluted per person per day.
